Jackson Pollock, White Light
Oil, enamel, and aluminum paint on canvas, 48 1/4 x 38 1/4" (122.4 x 96.9 cm) "Great things are done by a series of small things brought together." -Vincent Van Gogh
"Before I knowed it, I was sayin' out loud, 'The hell with it! There ain't no sin and there ain't no virtue. There's just stuff people do. It's all part of the same thing.' . . . . I says, 'What's this call, this sperit?' An' I says, 'It's love. I love people so much I'm fit to bust, sometimes.' . . . . I figgered, 'Why do we got to hang it on God or Jesus? Maybe,' I figgered, 'maybe it's all men an' all women we love; maybe that's the Holy Sperit-the human sperit-the whole shebang. Maybe all men got one big soul ever'body's a part of.' Now I sat there thinkin' it, an' all of a suddent-I knew it. I knew it so deep down that it was true, and I still know it." -Jim Casy
But you wasn't a preacher. A girl was just a girl to you! To me they's holy vessels. I was savin' their souls. I ask myself what is this here called "Holy Spirit"? Maybe that's love? Why I love everybody so much I'm fit to bust, sometimes. Maybe there ain't no sin and there ain't no virtue. It's just what people does. -Jim Casyhttp://luntworld.blogspot.com/2009/03/jim-casy-quote-for-march-11-2009.html
